Visual FoxPro Converter Dialog Box

Converts FoxPro 2.6 and Visual FoxPro 3.0 files to Visual FoxPro 7.0 format (necessary for use of these files with later versions of Visual FoxPro). This dialog box appears when you choose Open from the File menu and select a file created in a previous version of FoxPro, or when you type MODIFY PROJECT Command, MODIFY FORM Command, MODIFY REPORT Command, or MODIFY LABEL Commandfilename in the Command Window and select a file created in a previous version of FoxPro from the Open Dialog Box.

  • Convert Both Macintosh and Windows Form Records
    Only visible if converting FoxPro 2.6 screens or projects that contain platform-specific controls or information (such as references to screen fonts or paths). If you check this option, the converter creates a separate form for each platform. The Windows version of the form will have the original name, and the Macintosh version will have the original name with the suffix "_MAC" added. If the original screen was part of a project, the new project would be updated to include both new forms.

  • Retain Visual FoxPro 3.0 default property values
    Only visible if converting Visual FoxPro 3.0 forms or projects. Visual FoxPro 7.0 format default property settings for fonts and colors are Windows 98 compliant and sometimes different from Visual FoxPro 3.0 settings. If you check this option, your converted forms will retain the Visual FoxPro 3.0 property settings.

  • Backup files
    Makes it possible for you to specify a directory for backup files to be saved in.

  • Create log file
    Makes it possible for you to save a list of the actions performed while converting your files.

  • Functional conversion
    Only visible if converting FoxPro 2.6 screens or projects. Creates form and control images and copies code to locations in object properties, events, and methods. Functional conversion provides immediate FoxPro 2.6 READ compatibility so you can use forms in Visual FoxPro without making extensive manual changes. To gain complete event model functionality, you must eliminate pages and page frames, change the form set WindowType Property, and manually relocate code in methods and events.

  • Visual conversion
    Only visible if converting FoxPro 2.6 screens or projects. Creates images of forms and all controls, but copies all the code from the original FoxPro 2.6 project or screens to a non-compilable .prg file. Choose VisualConversion if you want to move to full Visual FoxPro functionality without having to eliminate pages and page frames, change the form set WindowType Property property, and manually relocate code from object to object.

  • Continue
    Displays the Visual FoxPro Transporter dialog box, which makes it possible for you to complete the file conversion process.

  • File
    You can use the three-dot button so you can locate or specify in the editbox the file you want to convert.

  • Directory
    Use this option to convert all the files in a directory. When you click this button, you enable the options that specify the type or types of files you want to convert. You can also specify whether to convert subdirectories.

    When you select this option, you can also choose whether to include all .scx and .vcx files, and whether to also check all subdirectories for convertible files.
